Create relaxed everyday garments with Linen Hemp - Classic Stripes - Sailor Blue, a natural fibre fabric with yarn-dyed stripes in light blue and off-white. The washed finish gives it a soft feel from the start, with a subtle natural texture that adds quiet character.

Made from 50% linen and 50% hemp, this blend brings together two breathable natural fibres that are comfortable in warm weather and continue to soften with washing and wear.

The light blue stripes measure approximately 1cm, separated by fine 3mm off-white stripes. Because the stripes are yarn-dyed, the colour runs through the fabric rather than sitting on the surface, creating a classic look that pairs easily with denim, white, tan and navy.

At 140cm wide and 120gsm, this fabric is lightweight with a gentle drape and opaque finish. It has no stretch, making it well suited to shirts, summer dresses, skirts and relaxed trousers.

Machine wash up to 30°C, warm iron and do not tumble dry. The estimated shrinkage is around 3–5%, so pre-wash the fabric before cutting and sewing.

If you're looking for a natural fibre stripe with a soft washed feel and timeless colouring, Linen Hemp - Classic Stripes - Sailor Blue is a lovely choice for your next sewing project.
